Product Features

TLV5613
  • 8- and 4-bit interface
  • 1 µs/4.2 mW-fast mode
  • 3.5 µs/1.2 mW-slow mode
  • Power-down mode (10 nA)
  • 2.7- to 5.5-V single supply
TLV5619
  • 12-bit TMS320 DSP compatible interface
  • 1 µs setting time (typ)
  • 4.3 mW for 3-V supply
  • 2.7- to 5.5-V single supply

These new 12-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) deliver conversion speeds not available from other voltage-output DACs. The TLV5613 and TLV5619 both feature 1-µs typical setting time while operating from a single wide supply range of 2.7 to 5.5 V. The faster analog-output dynamic performance means not having to use current-output DACs and the external output buffers they require for current-to-voltage conversion.

The TLV5613 features a parallel (8+4 bit) bus compatible with most 8-bit micro-processors. The TLV5613 has a low power mode (0.87 mW with 3-V supply), power-down mode, and two address lines that determine whether the parallel data consists of LSB, MSB, or control data. The TLV5619 features a 12-bit TMS320 (DSP) and microprocessor compatible parallel interface. The digital input data of the TLV5613 and TLV5619 is double buffered so that the output can be updated asynchronously using the LDAC pin. The output of both devices are buffered by a x2 gain rail-to-rail amplifier which features a Class-A output stage to improve stability and reduce setting time.

The TLV5613 and TLV5619 are perfectly suited for applications such as telecom line cards, mass storage, zip drives, industrial process control, and battery powered test instruments. Both devices are offered in a 20-pin SOIC or TSSOP packages, and are available in commercial (0°C to 70°C) and industrial (–40°C to 85°C) temperature ranges.
